Living the Life of a Rock Star at Todd Lynn

EBT reports from backstage at London Fashion Week

It's the sixth show of the day and Sharon Dowsett's up again - this time creating an expensive rock look inspired by Todd Lynn's latest collection. Disciplined but sexy cuts in browns and greens translated to green and real across the eyes and Maybelline's Master Drama Kohl in a bitter chocolate shade along the water line. Not a single trace of black appears in Lynn's collection so Sharon followed suite keeping shades autumnal tonal using eye palettes in Bronze Drama and Saphire and Diamonds. The new Maybelline BB Cream (out April) popped up again on skin and lashes got a generous coating (top and bottom) of Maybelline's Falsies Flared Mascara (which Sharon has nicknamed "Viagra for lashes").

A daring look on hair thanks to Toni & Guy's Cos Sakkas - a low tight pony at the nape of the neck, a severe middle parting and A LOT of gel. Tight comb marks and a poker straight pony were softened with "webbed" edges around the face. "I wanted to create a small head so that we don't distract the eye from the cut of the clothes", says Sakkas
